Paul,
You wrote: "I could show a worked example but the math would be tedious and probably not helpful." Well, I appreciate the thought but yes, the math, besides being tedious, would be way beyond my pay grade! But your explanation of rate calculation is helpful. As is working with decimalized angles.
I have downloaded your program which you so generously shared. But I still need to download the ephemeris. I'm probably going to be overwhelmed by the complexity but I think it'll be interesting.
Thanks for your reply,
Jim
